In the words of Giovanna Ferrario, Synergy Realty Ltd
Titles are issued, and LOT 3 has just had a further price reduction, now asking $899,000 - a brilliant proposition and great entry level to your lifestyle dream.
The covenants allow to relocate a beautiful home too, if you have one ready to go.
LOT 2 - SOLD
LOT 3 - Asking price $875,000
Each section enjoys great features:
- Set on more or less 1Ha of land, around 2.5 acres
- A generous building platform
- Beautiful rural views
- Three phase power at the boundary, exceptionally beneficial on a lifestyle property
- Fully fenced, mainly with post and rail, and partially with post and wire.
- Beautiful wooden gates, rustic and elegant
- Titles ready!
On LOT 3 there is a very old shed, a great scene for a western movie, which is and has been excellent for storing hay bales.
With all day sun, a tranquil setting and stunning rural view, all you need is your vision to create your lifestyle dream: graze a few animals, enjoy some fruit trees, landscape gardens or the workshop you always wanted…the choice is yours.
The location is absolutely fantastic, just minutes from all amenities, Kumeu village, wineries, restaurants, as well as the Northwest Centre and motorway access to the CBD and the North Shore. Taupaki School, Kindy, parks and even the Swanson train station are all within 10 Km from the sections.

Orientation we design around — see the contours on the aerial
Too far away to matter: nearest rail 1.4 km.
Distances are from the parcel centroid to Topo 1:50k features (LINZ); site aspect is approximate, from the 1m LiDAR contours. Road frontage is a proxy — centreline intersection with parcel boundary, not a legal access measure. Confirm setbacks with a district-plan check before purchase.
